Sittin' in class is a pain in the neck
Hows about me taking a three year raincheck
Gonna do what I want don't wonna graduate
Gonna take a break from everything that I hate

Hey there teach
I'm talking to you
You can't tell me what to do!

Schools out for the summer
Schools out for ever
Schools blown to pieces

Head strain - brain drain
School is such a pain!
No tears - all cheer
We want out of here!

Don't care 'bout no popularity crown
The prom king an' queen are just a couple of clowns
We can read an' we can write
What we need to know is where's the party tonight

Hey there teach
I'm talking to you
You can't tell me what to do!

Schools out for summer
(Wonna take a vacation from education)
Schools out for ever
(Getta qualification in relaxation)

No more pencils, no more books
No more teachers, dirty looks
Out for summer
Out 'til fall
We might not go back at all

Schools out for the summer
Schools out for ever
Schools blown to pieces
Schools out for the summer

Daphne & Celeste are an American pop duo, formed in New Jersey in the late ‘90s. Their debut single, “Ooh Stick You!”, was released in late 1999 and became an international hit, giving them a top 10 hit in the UK, Scotland, and New Zealand. Their follow-up single, “U.G.L.Y.,” likewise gave the duo a top 20 hit in each country. Both singles centered on rapid-fire delivery of insults in high-pitched voices.

Their debut album, We Didn’t Say That!, was released in 2000. Critical reaction to the duo was decidedly mixed, with some critics commending the group’s lack of seriousness, but others criticizing their lyrics and vocals.

The group had vanished from the public eye by the end of 2000, but they mounted an unexpected comeback in 2015 with a new single, “You & I Alone,” followed by their sophomore LP, Daphne & Celeste Save the World, three years later. The album, which adopted a more alternative sound than their debut, won acclaim and spawned further singles “BB” and “Alarms.”
